to have and to hold

Unplanned they might have been but not unwanted. Venom looked forward to taking their first steps into parenthood with Hattori. Hindsight was twenty twenty and had she put more thought into her actions Venom would have waited to give into temptation, but she did not regret the decision in the slightest. They were just moving ahead of schedule, and like everything would adapt together. Venom fit well with Hattori, and was thankful to have found a partner in him. He saw her at her lowest and highest moments and still remained steadfast beside her.

She didn’t expect the words he spoke, and her sunset tinted gaze tilted up to catch his own liquid silver eyes. Venom wouldn’t argue with him, she wished her children to bear the Abraxas name anyway. His logic made sense in her mind as well. These perfect little children would not bear the name of their grandfather. ”If that is your desire,” she agreed softly and leaned against him supportively. The mingling of their bloodlines would be easy enough to see in the pups themselves. Venom had no doubt each one would grow into a fine example of any name they held.

”We’ll be parents soon,” she observed softly, still in awe of the fact even though the day was looming. Their lives progressed with a quickness, but now that they were at this point the young Empress wouldn’t have made any trade in the world. Hattori was her partner, the other half to a whole. This was where she was meant to be.
